Like the saying goes "all skin folk ain't kin folk!" 🧐
and all hair ain't real hair
@@wreck993 never has been either. This is nothing new. I'm glad folks are waking up, though.
Trust some of the American born Africans though they other people that just come be hating.
They will have to learn the hard way -with their wallet-just like the asian beauty stores. We are tired of the disrespect.
Exactly 💯 we are tired of being sick and tired..
😢u wanna finna beat us😂😂😂
The Asians didn't learn anything. Black women are still spending billions with them.
Your Homeland already defeated you you had to leave @@Gambakwe65

Disgusting and shameful.
We got to Separate from our open Enemies.
Bingo
💯💯💯💯
@@BriwneeElijah Muhammad already told us, we have no friends. So we better Do For Self. Otherwise we gon get got everytime
Exactly, stop making these others rich
The African diaspora is not your real enemy
"Not at the detriment of my edges, you Not"😂
😂..lol.girl!
Do to them like do to the Asian pull ur phone ☎️ out and hit the translate app/icon 😮……yessss……!!!!!
Exactly
Thank you for that !
Haha pure facts I do this all the time and I also understand 2 other languages that helps too
@@isysslepore72 excellent
Got emmm'
The Asians do the same thing in their shops, the Arabs, Indians ,etc.
Yeah... she said that
Latinos do it to when we are around a group of them.
Where's your shop?
Everyone talks crap about us. It's us against everyone else. Fight back with your pocketbook
but you kind of expect it from Them. When people look like you, and have hair like you, you think there will be some mutual respect.
I have experienced the same thing years ago in the African braiding shop when my daughter was about 13. I was telling them how my daughter wants her hair and don’t braid it too tight around the edges. My daughter told me they started talking about me and calling me stupid. I stopped going there. So do agree with this sister and you.
I’m so sorry you had to go through this. I’m from UK and a lot of black British people go the this as well. They like to insult blacks from abroad because they assume that you don’t understand their language. I’ve been through that as well. In Ghana. 😢
@@griseldaboakye9768DO THEY REALIZE ON YOUR PHONE THERE ARE TRANSLATOR APPS.
AN WITHOUT BLACK PEOPLE GOING TO THERE BUSINESSES THERE BUSINESSES WILL GO UNDER.
IT IS REALLY A SHAME THEY THINK THEY R BETTER THAN BLACK PEOPLE WHEN THEY R WAY BEYOND BLACK AMERICANS.
AFRICANS ARE REAL BLACK PEOPLE
They stay talking about pp and most of them have zero edges. As soon as I see the lack of edges I leave.😂😂 you’re not have me looking like that.
There are Blacks in amerika that are great braiders. Stop going to them.
Well let’s get them all in a shop!!! I think not!!!! you’ll never get an appointment. Nobody wants to wait a week to get their hair done.
@@hatshepsutiv huh? Most of us have daughters who braid hair.. like me👍🏾 plus she don’t overcharge and rip out edges
She wants to support "Her kind"
@@hatshepsutivWhat makes you say that? I've never been to a shop to get my hair braided bc my daughter and daughter in law always do my hair. I was thinking about going to a shop if my daughters' schedules ever get too busy.
IMAGINE CALLING YOURSELVES BLACKS SO BACKWARDS SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING ON THE BOTTOM OF SOMEONE'S SHOE (*BLACK PEOPLE* DO BETTER)
Biting the hand that feeds you is never a good idea.
well as long as there's low self esteem, these hands will always eat......
@geraldross967 it is if they too dumb to sanction you
@@q.t.gamingfamily you can fool all of the people some of the time.....
Be careful speaking around others, you never know who they are!!
just stop talking bad about people if you cant unless you have the mouth to say it where they can understand you or shut up.
Right dam tethers@@BetterOpportunities
Exactly! Ppl understand language
@@markf.5551 I've caught it myself. We're the only place where learning multiple languages is discouraged.
@@q.t.gamingfamily what? Since when? They teach foreign languages in high school, and you can also take it as a minor in college. People limit their own growth!!!!
I don’t even trust most of our people fumbling with my hair. Damn sure not trusting other groups. I NEVER…
My grandma told me “you can’t let everybody in ya head.”
I listened, I’ve never had a problem with my edges. 🤷🏾♀️
Everyone else does the same to us, so they figure they can do it too.
@@rastahill748You ever heard of the Black tax?
@rastahill748 I'm taking about the disrespect
@@karenc6501 Oh okay my bad 💯
@@karenc6501 Oh yeah you right 💯
Too bad Africans see themselves as superior while being inferior, They gonna have a bad awakening disrespecting Black people (Black Americans)
It's envy . Thats why
All skin folks ain't kin folks. Celebrate what we have in common.
I’ve had my hair braided at African braid shops twice, each time my hair was snatched to the gawds. Hair on fire! Needless to say, they will never get in my hair again! You won’t have any!
Gul im mf dead. Not snatched to da Gods 😭
That's why they do it! A Kenyan girl posted online about them doing voodoo that she said they called it braiding secrets into your hair so your hair can fall out, which her people told her the same thing as my American Negro people do. Don't let just anybody in your head and not everyone has a grown hand. Always watch what hair style they have on their own heads too. Best option is to don't go to them and find your own people that do hair. The level of their hatred is unreal.
But their edges are NEVER snatched! Think about it...
@@sparklesp9304 they can't stand American blk women
Had my scalp bleeding! And I lost hair in those spots! There was no need to grip that damn tight! Plus I had longer hair so it wasn't hard to braid like short hair!. No excuse, which is why I will never return
It's great that she called them out.
Now we know who and who not to spend our $$$ with
Boycott these African shops.
Wow, BP are turning their hate inward. Sister get some help.
💯% ✔️
@SeeknDaTruth there has always been self hate. It has been programmed in for centuries.
@@SeeknDaTruth you need some help, kissing people behinds all the time
FACTS
💯✖️💯
10x out of 10, there’s a Black American woman who braids way better than African women in any U.S. city. I patron one of the best in Cleveland. Been rocking with her for almost a year now ✊🏾
You’re one of the smart ones
yup. Up here in Detroit I go to the American sistahs
Tribalism comes with every race
I work with an African guy, and he told me to be careful going to those braiding shops.
Some are jealous and spiteful.
Yes they are and always. They do witchcraft, spells and all to get ahead, etc. And white men. Majority of especially
Facts
Not jealous probably not, just gossiping women type nonsense especially some African women they love to gossip. It’s not hate just how they are
A LOT ARE !!!
Jealous of what?
I'm amazed at immigrants' mindsets when coming to a new country. I was born and raised in Canada from Toronto, and I noticed this behaviour from Asians, South Asians, and Africans. The immigration office needs to do better. I recall seeing a documentary about Switzerland making it difficult for specific countries like the Middle East to bring their backward ways of thinking toward Swiss women.
Makes u wonder why certain countries allow or entertainment certain practices cultures and practices but not others. U know they study which ones are assimilative and which ones r not, yet those that r not are allowed here and other Western places. Why is that?
You both sound like y'all want to be the oppressor with the backward thinking
Your comments make you both sound like black-faced WS's, if you are black that is.
The immigration office gives them the green light to disrespect 💯
I don't see why black people go to foreign blacks to get their hair done, black American women braid hair better.
Sometimes they're cheaper.
@@janicehuff1183 Some people got relatives that would do it for free or lesser than what the Africans are charging.
@@janicehuff1183Who's cheaper?
Because black Americans charge double the price!
I had an African lady cheat me by not completing the hair braiding style in the back of my head and her grip to braid my hair hurt so bad.I will never return.
Separate
Rigbt?! WtF do they grip so hard for?!?! Especially if you have a nice length of hair??
Most American black women get their hair done by American black women 🎂
Depends on what part of the nation you are in.
Exactly I will definitely not let them touch my hair unless it’s desperate times and I’m in a pinch 🤏
Never had let anyone braid my hair. Not only for this reason however, you don’t know what’s being woven into your hair. Having just ANYBODY doing your hair is DANGEROUS!!
I don't even when I'm in a pinch,@KnockOutCutie . I'm in a punch right now. I'm not about to go to no Asian shop nor a foreign shop where I don't speak the language. As an African American bilingual Spanish/ English speaker, they talk ish about us completely unprovoked, so if they don't like us.
@@q.t.gamingfamily same… a pinch has been over 4 yrs for me… so I truly mean desperate times lol. She was working out her home and relatively pleasant but hella expensive… that’s why I refuse to go back.
Fba American women will always braid fba women hair better than any African women will. I have fba nieces that are champion braiders at the age of 19 and 20
Yes! My daughter does an amazing job ❤
What is fba?
My neighbor quit buying from certain people in the neighborhood and they couldn't profit so they had to close up shop and move.
Smart neighbor!!
They don’t have to worry; I don’t step foot in those nasty ass hair braiding shops. They can have it!
Blc American hair stylist are JUST AS BAD! They price gouge, give you attitude, disrespect and will even cuss you out and escalate if you attempt to correct them. Which is why I stopped going and loc’ed my hair. --
I have to agree with you. That’s why I started using UA-cam and doing my own hair.
Do your own. They'll all learn when their pockets start hurting. So many videos online. But, they are some really good American hair stylist. My girl go to another girl that she met through FB and she's been going to her for years. She can do every style, she doesn't braid too tight, and she's really down to Earth, we've all went out a couple of times.
@@am7884 I said the same thing.
Hello. I have been told Never Ever go to Africans or Asians to get hair done or shop(Remember keeping expired products ☹️). Also, I seen of how some women braids was falling out from the sclap😳, yikes.
I have worked in a yte salon where I have seen sinister practices. This had nothing to do with blk, yte, Asian, etc. This is harmful thinking
I absolutely refuse to go into those shops too...most of 4:02 them don't like FBA anyway...just becuz they're from the motherland don't make them the Chosen ones....all africans are not created equal...and that's per the good book
black Americans are learning more and more about these immigrants
And you’ll soon discover ur learning more n more about yourself
@@SasaSasa-wy9wu The only thing I know is, I want them deported.
@@SasaSasa-wy9wu the only thing I know is is that we need to start deporting people
I believe in supporting all of our people. However, all these groups are here including Africans and Caribbeans of all sorts and Latin and benefiting off of us. I wear Sisterlocks from a black American. Leave all that nonsense alone.
Sisters in da Bricks stay up out of there !
Back in the day, high school gave you the choice of learning French or Spanish (I chose French). Today, one can use a phone to translate every language on the planet. Get the picture?
I want this to be addressed by Pan Africanist, not just Phil, he cant be the only one calling this mess out ..the rest to busy crying about Nasheed and TBA
Where is Dr Umar where is he hum, why he is not addressing this, he speak about everything, I guess missing in action.
@@bridallejohnson1818he can’t address everything damn!
Phil is always making excuses for them. He's always calling them our brothers and sisters. Most of them are WS.
@@Treemonieeehe's always quiet when there's a viral story about disrespect coming from africans because like he op said he's too busy crying about Tariq Nasheed and FBA'S. If him and other pan africans or africans in general checked this type of behavior Black Americans wouldn't have to but since they don't we do and when we do all they do is get on the internet crying about us being divisive.
They do that all the time! They are not in America because they like Americans. They are here for the opportunity! I buy American!
Not surprising Don't know why y'all keep thinking they are our brothers and sisters we are not the same people
Nope not the same
Exactly
Of course, we’re not the same people. I’m African btw. 😊
What's that supposed to mean?
@@thandiswabonani5303 if you don't know what I mean keep it moving the people who understand understand
They would treat a white woman like gold in that shop, they would roll out the red carpet.
And they can’t stand them
@@rosemoore3953 💯 ❤️
A white woman wouldn't be in there
Yep
I'm reminded of the expression "all skin folk ain't kin folk."
Yes, they do talk greasy about us in their languages. I'll never understand why Americans REFUSE to learn other languages. I'm ADOS born and bred in Soufees Washington, DC! And Hablo español! Yes, Halloween como Ellos! Why do they do that?! Because they can! I've heard it maid and they ASSUME you don't understand. I'm learning swahili now.
LEARN OTHER LANGUAGES AND AVOID PLACES WHERE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE LANGUAGE!
WE KNEW THAT AND THATS WHY BLACKS ARE DOING THEIR OWN HAIR IF THEY CAN
Same with nail salons.
Great video coverage Queen 👑 Kudos to the sister for speaking up and speaking out; lets shop with our own, its plenty of sisters that do hair/ hair braiding
Foundational Black American sisters, you mean.
@@UpmostTingz I said our own
@@samuelmahmud1909 I understood. Just wanted to make it clear, just in case disrespectful immigrants think they are a part of the sisterhood.
I was mistreated in an African hair braiding shop before 😢 I found out that all of them aren't with us American black people. They're just not. Dang!
It is sad....I pray for them
PERIODT!
This is nothing new, they come from families who sold us....
Not true
@@SeeknDaTruth well I think it's the absolute truth.
@@trevor8417 yes you are right especially in the western side of Africa one of their leaders even confessed that they participated in the slave trade and expressed how sorry he was on behalf of his ancestors who actually did it....very painful history you guys need serious reparations from West Africa and most of them even followed y'all to the USA and often talk about how lazy y'all are on social media
😂 What an outrageous thing to say
And DID!!!…We didn’t ask to come here, born and breed right here
Do not let people who do not respect you put their hands in your hair under any circumstances. Do not eat food from people who do not respect you.
They’ve been doing this for years!
This is not new this has been going on since they started doing business in the Black Community. The sad part is that our people still do business with them and others who “DISRESPECT US”.!!!!
Don't complain now, the sisters keep supporting others.I hope they keep it up until you build your own.
Turn on Google translate ❤
HOW BOUT WE THE PPL STOP DOING BUSINESS WITH THESE WOMEN
PROBLEM SOLVE! 3:09 nah you said right … they pull your hair out! Been stop going to them 4:10
That’s why it is best to get on UA-cam and learn to braid your own hair. ❤
I agree. So many of us either know or currently studying different languages. They have no idea. It’s worse when it’s coming from your own ppl being disrespectful.
This truly is disgusting that your own people (Nubians ) continue to stoop so low ! Treat other's how you want to be treated ! Thank you Sista for exposing truth!
Your own people? Who gave you the right to comment about other people?
Ahh they have a translation app for this issue if we use app fo the Chinese shops why not the African ones too
But they have the nerve to talk about FBA'S!!! It's jealousy.
I stopped going to African braiders a long time ago.
I did too!
That's how they r loosing clients.
Black folks used to style their own hai and nails. What the hell happened?
A lot of the AAs be having 50 million rules and be flaking on the appointments or taking 50 million hrs to finish
Elijah Muhammad already told us to do for self, cause we have no friends.
So they treat us like some of the Asians do. In America, speak English. It is language of commerce her in America. In the boardroom in America, English is the standard. People have said this about others speaking their native tongues when conducting business in America, whether it Spanish, Mandarin, French, or any other language. If you want my business, speak English.
this asian guy told me we have a translator on our phone 📱 use it,,
This is what happens when these businesses think the grass is greener on the other side. Shalom 🙏🏾✡️
Im going to get a voice a language translator app
This why I stop going. As well my hair keep falling out in places were it was strong. For now on going back to doing it myself or my American sister.
No surprise at all. Guarantee if their customers base was non black they will be falling over themselves catering to them. IYKYK🤷🏾♀️
I do my own braids gladly
If I walk into a shop and the employees are all speaking to each other in a different language, I walk out. I know what they are doing. Phuq THAT!
There are ear buds that are language translators. Watch out and look out for people instantly speaking a foreign language around you.
I speak to my dad in French in public all the time. I feel more comfortable speaking to him in French or Swahili. AAs like to point fingers but never look at yourselves. When I came to America, AAs tormented me when all I wanted was to fit in.
Translator black PEOPLE I ONLY GO 1 AFRICAN LADY AND SHE LEFT THE SHOP 15 YEARS AGO SHE DOES IT PART TIME IN HER HOME THO
Probably from the coast.
IT IS VITAL that black owned businesses give their clients good service. It’s far easier for people to go to non black owned businesses and get what they want, so when you have people who want to patronize your business, treat them right!
That was an african business not a "Black" owned business.
@@FBA_God_Emperor_Doom That’s ridiculous.
All skin folks ain't kin folks.
This is why I UA-cam the process and I do my own. Because they’re fickle in these shops. When folk left the Dominican shops for the blow outs or silk press and moved on to the braids for a lasting style or cornrow for the wigs the shops started rain their prices using cheaper hair over booking and taking lunch in the middle of doing your hair. Lack luster services. It’s crazy. Folk paying car notes for lack luster services. Been there done that. They too have begun to take the customer for granted. They’ve become the round the way nail shops😂
Well said Sis
I don’t know who is worse? The Koreans at the nail salon or the Africans hair salon
They ALL hate y'all
👀🙄Not true‼️
So you enjoy telling lies on the Internet I see.
@@marilynmarlowe3061 just because you say so huh...smh
@Zakaryah. 👀😏 Same to you boy ‼️
@@justinhumphrey1516 You let that thing call you "boy"? I wouldve roasted her ahh. These "sistas" be trippin me out 😂
That’s like my nail salon. They are constantly communicating through their ear pieces. I learned Hangul Korean language when I was little by my uncle I know everything they say. One time a male manicurist told a joke about 2 white females. I laughed and said, “ Oh that’s a good one,I’ve never heard that one before”. You should have seen the look on his face? And he said “ what’s a good one”? I said, “ that joke you just told”. He about fell out of his seat realizing I heard everything they were saying. 😂
You got them good
@@michaelmaps2004 What’s even funnier is, every time I walk in, they barely say anything to each other. I’m there getting my nails done every 3 weeks lol 😂
@@tinaa1350 😂😂😂 you already set the pace
😂😂😂
😂😂 you got him good 👍..I watched the Korean dramas for 5yrs and learned alot too😊
They must be related to President Ruto
People become ungrateful really quick. They forget where they came from.
This is nothing new, especially in NY. I witness the same thing at work with the African nurses. My supervisor is an African woman, she moves like this and when I said something she act like she was offended. Yeah I been stop letting them braid my hair!
They always do it. I don’t care because they wouldn’t say it in English. Sometimes i call my African guy and ask him what they are saying. Just do my style correctly and not tight so I can go.
They are flat out jealous. That's all it is. Stop f****** with them and they'll go hungry and get it together. And if you can't do the style that a person want say that up front and it can go somewhere else
Wait a minute so we are going to generalize all Africans because a set of them and lets be honest this lady did not record them talking and did not specified if it was all the braiders in the establishement. So now we are going to say its all Africans? She was wrong for generalizing and so are the people on here. If you dont like when the yte man does it, dont turn around and do it either, most of you act as if some blk American braiders dont talk bad about their customers and treat them bad as well. Lets becareful how we turn on each other making generalization when to error is human.
She is one of them, she still didn't say much she just told that the shop was talking about the people probably cuz she don't like shop!!
She was still on code with her people
The same happened with cousin, we're from Louisiana and understand a bit of French and she had to let them know
She's a true empress for that.🌄 There's hope!
They don’t care. They only want to focus on the negative.
Be careful with people touching your hair!
Have you ever looked at most of those African hair stylists natural hair?
🤔😱😂🤣😭
Keep your translator app. on so it types out what they say'n and they don't hear the response.
We have no allies.
Because, they imitate what they see done by others.. We need to stop going to them too..
They are not our GD brothers and sisters!!!!!
It would be nice to have our sisters wear their hair naturally anyway. Does anyone know what these extensions are made of?
I love your personality demetra
African here and this is total nonsense. I would call them out then and there. It’s really sad when it’s people that look like you do this BS while the know well and good they get the same ish from them folks. I was born/raised in E Africa, I have to say this is a west African thing. Rest of Africa know what’s up and respect our American brothas and sisters. SMH
They from Haiti 🇭🇹 fir sure
If they were from Haiti they would more likely be speaking Creole, and not french.
The poster already stated they were from Africa. I see what you are trying to do with that subliminal message. 🤔
Possibly from Francophile African countries.
Amen, be honest, be grateful, be generous, be clean , be thankful. That means your American.
Staff in salons are usually gossips and rude all over the world, even here in Africa. Now that people are interacting more then you get to know each others weaknesses. That is one of reasons most people now plait their own hair. Let's not spread hatred by judging the whole people. I applaud the African sister for standing for what's right. Black is black all over the world, lets hold each other accountable and be a better people for ourselves.
There are language apps on your phone, have them on when you are obtaining a service and someone is talking in another language around you. If they were speaking french, I suspect the could have been from Senegal.
The young lady speaks perfectly good English why didn't you let her tell it?!!
